ClawAudit verdict

sergei-mikhailov-tg-channel-reader

🟢 Trusted

Low risk — reviewed by ClawAudit, behavior matches stated purpose

Reads Telegram channels via MTProto using user-provided TG_API_ID and TG_API_HASH; the security notice about session file sensitivity is explicit and appropriate, and the skill only reads channels the user is subscribed to.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. ClawAudit flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.
